Whispers Of Inspiration: A Formulators Tale

With reverence she touches unrefined oil and freshly dried herbs

Waiting for inspiration of new things to birth

At times it’s a whisper of waxes and butters to blend

Sometimes it’s the heady lure of Jasmine and other essentials that win

With gloved hands, graduated beakers, jeweler, and kitchen scales

She meticulously weighs and tests, but often she will fail

Back to her journal the voice of inspiration becomes a deafening roar

Demanding she try again, research and explore

Until the perfect ingredients unfold onto her page

Each percentage, every gram, she will carefully arrange

Sweet Mother Earth! She finally finds the perfect combinations

She smiles with satisfaction, opens her journal, and notes her observations
